Moisture in tank rooms

Platehead

How does everyone combat excessive moisture in rooms with tanks? I have a 120 on the 1st floor and 2 tanks in my son's bedroom. Windows have been wet the last few days. In the summer I run ac 24/7 in those rooms. I am concerned about black mold forming.
Thx
 
Dehumidifiers and/or bathroom vent type setups; preferably with humidistats so that they aren't running 24x7.
 
I got a humidistat and hooked a bathroom vent kit to it. Works awesome you can set the %of humidity you want the room at
 
I have a bathroom vent hookup. It's manual though - only need it in the dog days of summer.
 
+1 for what MrX said. I have forced hot air heat so most of the condensation is collected and pumped outside. But I have a dehumidifier in the basement for the sump room and a fan on a humidistat and never have moisture issues.
